THE SCIENTIFIC VIEW.
fwrittsn for the REvtxw.l

when earth was young her tender crust
Scarce bore the weight Of vegetation
Which her n shtless, humid day
Around her north polo made to grow.
A bubble from hor depths profound
Then through the nory mass arose
Close TO the oonAnes OF her northern day,
And, bursting through the foamins shell,
Cast fragments huge and bold
Far north and south and east and west,
Until vast sxpanse Of smiling lain
was heaped In seeming ruin.
